STARKE, Fla. – A group of atheists unveiled a monument to their nonbelief in God on Saturday to sit alongside a granite slab that lists the Ten Commandments in front of the Bradford County courthouse.As a small group of protesters blasted Christian country music and waved ‘‘Honk for Jesus’’ signs, the atheists celebrated what they believe is the first atheist monument allowed on government property in the United States.‘‘When you look at this monument, the first thing you will notice is that it has a function. Atheists are about the real and the physical, so we selected to place this monument in the form of a bench,’’ said David Silverman, president of American Atheists.It also serves another function — a counter to the religious monument that the New Jersey-based group wanted removed. It’s a case of if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.~snip~

How is erecting a monument not a religious act?
My understanding is the purpose of erecting a monument is to symbolize a reverence for a place or an ideal.

Will atheists conduct pilgrimages to the site to stand in silent ambivalence to the idea of a creator?
The idea of erecting a monument to nothing to counteract a monument to faith seems to me to be so empty as to be meaningless.
Which is kind of stupid when you think about it.
It ain't a competition guys, either you believe or you don't, all you're doing now is making asses out of yourselves.

I guess it's no secret that the republican party has already left conservatives behind after the disastrous results of 2012.
It couldn't get anymore wishy-washy than offering Massachusetts Mitt after trying to force lame McCain on us previously.

Voter turnout was lower than it had been in the 2 previous presidential elections which, according to the article, about 93 million eligible voters didn't participate.

I'm sure more than a few million of those where conservatives who have just given up on the RNC being able to offer a clear choice in 2012.

The RNC has left conservatives with no real clear choice.

Which is why, in my opinion, it's about time someone started forcefully stating the obvious.

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said on Saturday that if Republicans abandon conservatives, conservatives may have to consider leaving the Republican Party.Palin was responding on Fox News to a question from a viewer, Josh Painter, who asked if she and conservative talk radio host Mark Levin would be willing to form a "Freedom Party" if the GOP continues to let down conservatives."I love the name of that party," Palin said on Fox News on Saturday. "If the GOP continues to back away from the planks in our platform, from the principles that built this party of Lincoln and of Reagan, then, yeah, more and more of us are going to start saying, 'You know, what's wrong with being independent?'"Palin said that if Republicans vote for things like amnesty, "there will be a lot of us who start saying, 'GOP, if you abandon us, we have nowhere else to go except to become more independent and not enlisted in one or the other private majority parties that rule in our nation.'"She said that both national parties are "private parties" and nobody forces Americans to be "enlisted in either party."Palin's remarks represent the frustrations of conservatives who note Republicans lose when they nominate moderate candidates in national elections.~snip~

It's time to start getting the idea out there and for conservatives to have a really serious conversation about it.
Conservatives aren't killing the republican party, the republican party is killing itself by not fielding candidates conservatives can get behind.
If they choose another squishy RINO for 2016 they're as good as dead anyway.

At one time Marco Rubio was considered a rising star of the Republican Party, but after a surprise turning of principles he's become like any other RINO.
Interested in pandering to liberal/commie open border interests instead of protecting the middle class.

Go to here to his facebook page and let him know how you feel, along with thousands of other betrayed Americans.

Liberals will sell their souls before they will betray their party....today you became a sell-out. Just ONCE I would like to see a Republican who has honor, integrity, courage, and has the backbone to stand. I thought we had found that in you. Sadly, we did not....and I am so disappointed.

I've often wondered if "they" didn't get Rubio involved in this precisely to destroy him...and he fell for it. I do believe the Dems were afraid of a Rubio run in 2016 and that he would swamp the Hispanic vote. This was a plan to take him out...and it has worked. Too bad he was too taken with himself to see this.

http://therightscoop.com/mark-levin-rubio-texted-me-and-told-me-what-im-saying-about-the-gang-of-8-bill-is-not-accurate/ You just destroyed your political career. Whoever challenges you for the Senate on the conservative or libertarian side will get my support. You just destroyed any presidential aspirations you had. BTW, I have family that's Hispanic and I am totally against this pork laden horrific bill. You are a a power hungry fool.

They said you were a rising star. They said you were a young, fresh conservative. They were wrong. You sold us a democrat bill that will do nothing to help this nation. Thanks for nothing. You'll have to work extra hard to win the next election. Good luck with that. And if there is a next time, where a big "D".

Well Obama has a "Minnie me" . We thought we had someone trustworthy . I believe all these politicians are reading from Obama's handbook . Lie to them tell them what they want to hear , then do what you damn please .

Thank you for making me feel just as sick as I did the day Obama was re-elected .

You have successfully helped destroy this country . Thank God that my faith is in him alone .

Today I rescind all association with the Republican Party. I will no longer allow my vote to be taken for granted by an entity whose interests have diverged so far from my own over the past quarter-century. I will never again vote for a Republican candidate simply because he or she is less evil than his or her Democratic counterpart. I'm tired of compromising my principles to support a party that has none.
Don't try to feed me the line that "I'm just playing into the Democrats' hands" or "don't throw the baby out with the bathwater." The Republican bathwater has become so fouled by such stalwarts as Lindsey Graham and John McCain and their ilk that the poor baby immersed in it can no longer help being permanently corrupted and infected by it. Look what it did to baby Marco, who just a few short months ago many were touting as the coming Conservative Messiah. I'm happy to say I wasn't among them, but many feel extremely betrayed, and rightly so. Be very careful, Senator Ayotte.
We often criticize black voters for their undying allegiance to the Democratic Party, which has operated counter to their interests for decades. By giving the same measure of allegiance to the Republican Party, we conservatives are no better. It's like battered wife syndrome: they promise us they won't do it again, and we keep supporting them and coming back for more.~snip~

There ain't anything here I can disagree with, the GOP has turned on conservatives over and over for years and so many of us just kept coming back for more.
For a lot of us it's become a vicious cycle, they keep throwing the same liberal pandering trash at us and we become stuck realizing that the garbage candidates we get are just barely marginally better than what the democrats put out there.
Then the RNC gives us a big old shit eating grin and basically says to us,"what choice you got chumps?".

Conservatives were actually mystified about why so many fellow conservatives stayed home when all they were offered was "Massachusetts Mitt", this after having McRINO forced down our throats.

Lots of people have talked about trying to rehabilitate the Republican party but think about it, their response to being beaten in the last election was to try and figure out ways to surrender to the democrats on issues. To make themselves over to an even heavier "democrat lite".

There maybe no rehabilitation possible. If anyone can come up with another alternative (other than Ron Paul) then I'm in.

As I was watching all the liberal/commie news media yesterday slobbering uncontrollably over the decisions handed down by the Supreme Court, I couldn't help but reflect about how we got to this point.
Then I read Justice Scalia's dissent and realized that he got it right.

To question its high-handed invalidation of a presumptively valid statute is to act (the majority is sure) with the purpose to "dis- parage," "injure," "degrade," "demean," and "humiliate" our fellow human beings, our fellow citizens, who are homo- sexual. All that, simply for supporting an Act that did no more than codify an aspect of marriage that had been unquestioned in our society for most of its existence— indeed, had been unquestioned in virtually all societies for virtually all of human history. It is one thing for a society to elect change; it is another for a court of law to impose change by adjudging those who oppose it hostes humani generis, enemies of the human race.

This whole campaign to fundamentally change society was waged on a platform of hatred, threats, marginalization, patently false assertions and lies about a good many citizens of this country.
We wouldn't be at this point if the forces of "change" hadn't been able to effectively wage a war against religion in the name of tolerance. Without the liberal/commie media this wouldn't have been possible as they bent over backwards to silence opposing views.

Already the stage is set for future oppression, take the recent case of Paula Deen, who BTW was a big cheerleader for liberalism and "hope and change".
All this after it was revealed in a deposition that she uttered the n***** word 27 years ago.

I'm not defending her, I kind of enjoy it when liberals eat their own, but it is a harbinger of what's in store in the future.
I can see liberal news media talking heads asking people if they were "Jesus freaks" in the 70's or "are you now or have you ever been a member of a southern Baptist church" or attended a Catholic school?

With each step the gay friendly politically correct media and leaders make the greater the push will be to purge every last pocket of resistance to their desires.
This country won't be defeated by a foreign army, it will be defeated by the haters of freedom within.

Don't forget that her daddy wants to legalize a few million illegals so they can compete for whatever jobs are left and further erode wages and benefits for Americans.
Wonder how she'll celebrate that?

Doing everything they can possibly do to retain the "right" to dismember babies in the womb right up to the moment of birth "prochoice" fanatics erupt in childish screaming to prevent a vote in Texas to limit abortions.

Not heard was the voices of the millions of babies discarded in medical waste containers over the years.

Texas' lieutenant governor acknowledged early Wednesday that Republicans missed their deadline to pass new abortion restrictions after protesters screamed down lawmakers as the final 15 minutes passed before the special legislative session's deadline.Initially, Republicans insisted they had started voting before the midnight deadline and passed the bill that Democrats spent much of Tuesday filibustering. But after official computer records and printouts of the voting record showed the vote took place on Wednesday, and then were changed to read Tuesday, senators convened for a private meeting.An hour later, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst was still insisting the 19-10 vote was in time, but said, "with all the ruckus and noise going on, I couldn't sign the bill."He denounced the more than 400 protesters who staged what they called "a people's filibuster" from 11:45 p.m. to well past midnight. He denied mishandling the debate."I didn't lose control (of the chamber). We had an unruly mob," Dewhurst said. He then hinted that Gov. Rick Perry may immediately call another special session, adding: "It's over. It's been fun. But see you soon."~snip~

Leftists are all ready to have a "conversation" up until they realize they have lost the debate, then they turn to thug tactics and throwing a fit to get their way.
No wonder we can't have adult discussions, only one side behaves like grownups, the other like spoiled children.

Wow what a historic presidency, Obama pushing for all those really important things like repealing DADT, crippling the energy industry (thank god those jobs won't be available.
Warning Christians around the world not to resist the Muslim Brotherhood and trying to grant amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants to compete with the few jobs he and administration hasn't managed to destroy yet all the time neglecting those who want to enter the workforce.

Believe it or not these airheads who helped propel president failure into office have the nerve to complain that the opportunities they expect to be handed to them ain't there.

More than 120,000 college graduates who obtained a bachelor’s degree took jobs in fields other than those that they most preferred last year, which works out to an unwanted job taken every five minutes.The numbers come from a recent report from McKinsey On Society, an online publishing forum for the consulting firm’s research on pressing social issues. The report says that 48 percent of college graduates took a job that required less than a four-year degree. Four to five times as many graduates are working in the retail and restaurant industries than would prefer to. The report also noted that 15 percent of taxi drivers have a college degree, up drastically from 1 to 2 percent in 1970.In an interview with the Huffington Post, a recent college graduate, exasperated, said she’d take any job offered. “My ultimate goal right now is just to get a full-time job that has benefits; I don’t care if it’s in my field,” she said.At a time when student debt has reached more than $1 trillion and Congress struggles to come up with a bipartisan plan to alleviate it, the fear of not being able to afford the bills is tangible for recent college graduates. ~snip~

Oh the horror, to swallow hope and change hook line and sinker and then to find out the world isn't made up of rainbows and unicorn farts.

Here we got an article about a bunch of self important little children who expert to go out into the world and get a cushy dream job that will make all their problems go away.

I guess there isn't that much of a demand for that BA in transgender lesbian feminist studies as they thought.

Under Obama's economy not only are there millions out of work right now but there are millions who, after years of trying, have given up altogether trying to find a job.

Quite a few, who I'm sure, have way more experience in that "preferred job" you're looking for.

You voted him in and then watched him destroy the economy and then wonder why you can't get the job you think you're entitled to.

Now you get to feel the pain you inflicted on the rest of the country while you spent 4 years insulated from reality by mommy and daddy.

So today Obama gave a speech about how we all must be committed to protecting the environment at Georgetown University, ya know....how fragile the planet is and how,"SOMEBODYS GOTTA DO SOMETHING!!!!!!".
Then everybody left.......first picking up after themselves.

Of course they want to DO SOMETHING!! with somebody elses money. In the meantime Obama is pretty much ignoring the rising deficit, the lack of job opportunities (because he's stifling business with Obamacare and the EPA) , the lack of transparency in his administration and the deliberate targeting of citizens who make any attempt to oppose his policies.

Russian reporters on board the flight and foreign press gathered at Havana airport reported no sightings of Snowden or any unusual security.When the captain of the Aeroflot plane emerged from customs he was surrounded by photographers. He pulled out his own camera, took picture of the photographers and said "No Snowden, no." Members of the aircraft's crew also told reporters on the plane soon after take-off that Snowden was not on board.The founder of the WikiLeaks secret-spilling organisation, Julian Assange, earlier insisted that, though he couldn't go into details about where Snowden was, knew said he was safe elsewhere. Snowden has applied for asylum in Ecuador, Iceland and possibly other countries, Assange said. ~snip~

They did get a picture of his empty seat though. Which should rank up there with other journalist gems

I'm kind of torn about this, on the one hand I'm not really happy that this guy released classified information and is being used by countries that don't have our, or anybody else's, best interests at heart.
On the other hand it's kind of humorous the way it highlights Obama and his administration's ineptitude and incompetence when it comes to protecting our vital secrets and their ability to bumble diplomacy with other countries.

But, since most of Obama's base hates America and would be delighted to see us embarrassed I can believe that Obama isn't in a real hurry to have Snowden extradited and stand trial.
His commie base would howl like the damned if their hero was prosecuted.

Also the good news about him not making the plane is that we won't be subjected to the presses puffy fluffer pieces on what a great guy Snowden is.
Personally I think he should be brought back and face the consequences for his actions.
Lets face it, if his motivations were as altruistic as every left wing slobbering idiot claims then he would have stayed here and defended his actions.

BTW, the liberal/commie Obama media makes the Keystone Kops look competent in comparison.
At least they can find who they're looking for.

This week the Supreme Court will hand down four decisions that will mark a turning point for the United States, and some possible outcomes could even change the course of this country for the rest of our national existence.The High Court heard 75 cases this year. As this week begins, 64 have been decided, meaning the final 11 will come down this week as the Court concludes its 2012 Term. Seven are run-of-the-mill cases, but the other four are as big as they get. ~snip~

I don't believe that the term "conservative" really means much anymore as far as what the court will do with these issues. It seems to have a mind of it's own.
Even though Justice Scalia questions the sanity of "moralist" judges, historically the court hasn't shied away from making pronouncements from on high. So I don't see much hope for them ruling in favor of common sense. Their ruling on Obamacare pretty much taught me that.

“Members of this Court…we possess neither the expertise nor the prerogative to make policy judgments. Those decisions are entrusted to our Nation’s leaders, who can be thrown out of office if the people disagree with them. It is not our job to protect people from the consequences of their political choices.”

And he's right, we are where we are in this particular point in history because of the choices we all made at the ballot box.
As long as we can't spare 10 minutes a day away from American Idol and TMZ to make ourselves aware of what politicians are doing to society in our name then nothing will change.
Only until the boot of the liberal/progressive commie democrats and RINOs tightens to the point that we all suffer under their tyranny will we throw off their oppression and vote them out on their asses.

Eric Holder on the hot seat for "Fast and Furious"!!!
Nah just kidding.
Hillary Clinton pinned to the wall over Benghazi, pshaw, I mean "what difference does it make".

I'm watching the ABC evening news and you know what they led with?
Paula Deen and remarks she made in a deposition she gave that was vetted by....wait for it.... the National Enquirer. Cause apparently this is who the national media now turn to for their hard hitting news stories.
Who can blame them though, the New York Times has proven over and over again that it's nothing more than a partisan rag.

This story was so compelling that "real journalists" Matt Lauer and Al Roker fell all over themselves to try and book her live on the Today Show so they could show her groveling on live TV to apologize.
Ya know like they did with Exalted Cyclops Robert Byrd.
Or the way they humiliated Lois Lerner of the IRS after she plead the 5th during congressional hearings.
Oh wait, that never happened.......because ABC didn't read about Lerner or Byrd in the National Enquirer, that's where the real news is cause we ain't getting it from ABC.
Instead all they got was a video posted on YouTube.

I hope nobody's wondering why this administration isn't being held accountable for it's incompetence because to me it's pretty obvious.

Laura Ingraham tries to school the obtuse pinhead but O’Reilly ain't having none of it, as always his version of "looking out for the folks" is pandering to the insufferable group of RINOs in the party who are looking for a way to get positive strokes from the liberal commie media.

I don't know about anybody else but I'm getting sick and tired of every time these clowns try to push an immigration bill they "promise" they're going to be really tough on the border.... honest!!!
The politicians have never shown an inkling to want to do that so why would they think that anyone could believe that they would enforce any new laws?
Also legalizing the criminals already here is not going to stop illegal immigration, it's been a problem for decades and unscrupulous businesses have always put pressure on politicians to turn a blind eye so they would have a workforce to exploit and underpay.
Every job I ever got after Reagan's last amnesty I had to show several pieces ID to prove that I could work in this country.

So if there are illegals working now then it has to one of three things.
Either employers are ignoring the law, illegals are buying stolen or stealing ID or the federal government ain't enforcing it.
Personally I think it's all three.

Each group has it's own motivations for legalizing millions of invaders across our borders, and they don't care if it's at the expense of the workers here already suffering under the Obama/democrat economy.
Don't buy the bullshit they're slinging our way.

I'm sure the mainstream, liberal commie media is in major disappointment mode that old Chuck Hagel doesn't belong to the Tea Party or has an (R) next to his name.
We would have been bombarded with stories on how racist he is, seeing as how the Obamessiah appointed him it'll be crickets for sure.

Absolutely no slight toward any individual in the audience was intended. That’s the last thing the Secretary would do under any circumstance, in this or any other setting. He didn’t know who would be called next to pose a question.

Yes, it's ridiculous. Yes, it's childish. And yes, it may be Photoshopped. What do you think? Check out more "sacred sightings" in our slideshow below, and discuss. Discuss this dog's butt.

Super classy right?
HuffPo leans so far to the left that it's no wonder it staggers most of the time and gets plenty of love from the religion haters out there.
That's right, I said religion haters, atheists are a different matter. Most real atheists that I have come into contact with and have discussions about religion simply just disagree about the existence of God. They never deny that Christians built this country, defended it with their lives. That countless millions have been able to reverse the destructive tendencies in their lives like alcoholism and drug abuse by turning their lives over to a higher power.
Christians have given aid and shelter to the poor and sick and comforted those who need it for the loss of loved ones.

But the religion haters....they think it's clever to see Jesus in a dogs butt.
Their hatred for others who seek comfort in faith, to them we deserve a dogs butt.
This is the America of liberal/commie/leftist hate, where faith and belief are frowned on and ridiculed.

It's not about live or let live anymore, it's about my way or the highway and if you don't conform then we'll make you irrelevant.
Those are the kind of people in charge now.

Chris Hayes went "All In" for evil reporting on George Wallace's stand against segregation 5 decades ago by reminding his audience of 25 to 40 people that George Wallace was a Republican.
The only problem is that Wallace was a democrat.
A simple Google search could have told him that.......so far. Until the progressive/commie democrat party finds a way to scrub any record of their racist leanings from the web.

Tuesday, June 11, 2013

This is the kind of stuff that just makes me roll my eyes at the American public that these entrenched incumbents believe that we're so stupid that we don't know when we're being manipulated.
Don't get me wrong, I know that there are quite a few out there that either hate this country or really believe that politicians have their best interests at heart.
Like using the IRS to stifle the opposition.

The way that democrats stand atop the dead and try and manipulate us into believing that giving up a fundamental constitutional right is disgusting.
The right to keep and bare arms is supposed to be there for the citizens to be able to resist a tyrannical government. Kind of like a free press was supposed to do, seeing as how the liberal/commie media is in the tank for liberal/commie democrats then that one is a wash.

The thing we all need to ask is how come those who are the furthest to the left are the most aggressive when it comes to taking our constitutional rights away?

This video pretty much nails it as far as privacy goes. The mantra of "if you're doing nothing wrong then why do you care" kind of flies out the window.
The recent trend of reality TV has made the public numb about the idea of personal privacy. For some reason it's become trendy to reveal intimate aspects of our lives that in the past people wouldn't ordinarily talk about.
Do you really want everyone to know about that rash on your ass?
Because we are getting ready to reveal that kind of information, not to a doctor or even anyone we authorize, but to the IRS.
A government agency who has already demonstrated that they will use your information however they please.
We're about to lose the ability to control our private information and turn it over completely to the government,who so far, has shown no interest in being held accountable for how they use it.
Are you really confident with this administration having access to this much information about you?
Feeling safer yet?

Rep. John Dingell (D., Mich.) became the longest-serving member of Congress in U.S. history Friday, and in an interview reflected on major legislative achievements and the changes in Washington over his nearly six decades in the House.
Mr. Dingell, 86 years old, has held his position for 57 years, five months and 26 days. He broke the record held by the late Democratic Sen. Robert Byrd of West Virginia.
Mr. Dingell has been involved in some of Congress’s most celebrated achievements. “The single most important vote I cast” was for the 1964 Voting Rights Act, he said in an interview Friday.
He has since helped push through Medicare, the Clean Air and Clean Water Acts, and most recently, President Barack Obama‘s health-care overhaul, the Affordable Care Act. From 1981 to 1994, and then from 2006 to 2008, Mr. Dingell was chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee.
He faced a stiff primary challenge in 2002, when redistricting had thrown him into a fight with another Democrat incumbent, Rep. Lynn Rivers, a more liberal member.~snip~

The fact that this guy could repeatedly get elected and linger in Washington for 57 years doesn't say much for the intelligence of his constituents and brings into sharp focus why our country can't move in a positive direction.
Entrenched incumbency by any party is the curse of the new politics in Washington.
Instead of celebrating this "accomplishment" we should be asking ourselves some really hard questions on how we got to this point.

Friday, June 7, 2013

Again the most racially obsessed person on cable can't understand why people believe the perfect Obama is evil.
You gotta wonder where all this blind worship comes from, no political leader deserves this kind of absolute devotion.
I mean maybe he believes he's defending the guy but telling people that Obama sends tingles up and down his leg and then spitting and drooling his undying love for Obama in front of a camera is nothing less than embarrassing. For him and the network that hired him.

CHRIS MATTHEWS: "The good thing going for Cory Booker, if he's the candidate, Steve, is that we don't have any African Americans in the United States Senate, which I think is a disgrace. You know, it's one of the reasons I voted for my friend Michael Steele when he ran because I think we ought to have some. It's absurd in this country, it's absurd, Steve."

I wonder how close he came to saying "ofthose people."?
When I look at a candidate I'm looking for things like good ideas, leadership ability, has he/she accomplished anything, what are his/her values, is he/she an elitist prick or grounded in reality and can relate to his/her constituents?
These are the things I look for in a candidate.
Now if I were a liberal/progressive this is where I would add some condescending little line like, "I don't care if he/she is green,purple or black!!!"
But I'm not.
What I do care about is if he/she is a liberal/progressive.
Those I won't vote for.

A lot of people online are applauding this video of Rep. Trey Gowdy lecturing the IRS on their shameful waste of taxpayer money for their own enjoyment while other Americans are struggling to survive in Obama's economy.
As well they should, but as Gowdy says over and over, training will not solve the problem.
The real problem is the ensconced liberal/progressives that infest civil service from the top to the very bottom.
When the bright idea came up for IRS agents to single out opponents of the current regime doesn't it strike anyone as kind of odd that no one spoke up and possibly suggested that it might be wrong?
The reason is because they honestly believe that they are entitled to do whatever they choose to intimidate citizens into silence.

If anyone actually believes that hearings alone will cure what ails civil service then they are delusional.
To cure the government of what they are doing, which is actually declaring war on ordinary citizens of this country, an actual purge of these agencies is what is needed. A mass firing of partisan hacks who entered civil service for the sole purpose of forcing their ideas and beliefs on others. Instead of simply following the rules and regulations set down by congress.
If not then over time the corrupt liberal/progressive bureaucrats will slowly but surely go back to their "let them eat cake" attitudes and corrupt practices.
I worked in civil service for a short time and one thing I learned is that most loyalties with them lie in their unions and with liberal/progressive ideologies.
It was like that 30 years ago and I'm sure it's like that now on steroids.

Politicians come and go, bureaucrats go one forever.
Shrink and restructure civil service to actually serve their country, not create little fiefdoms who wield control over citizens without accountability.

I don't think there's any other liberal/progressive network as obsessed with race as MSNBC.
What this is about is that for the first time since this country was established the government is at war with it's citizens.
It has created the bureaucracy and given them the power to punish us for opposing them.
It has nothing to do with Obama's race and everything to do with his Marxist/Leninist leanings.

Manufacturing (NAPMPMI) in the U.S. unexpectedly shrank in May at the fastest pace in four years, showing slowdowns in business and government spending are holding back the world’s largest economy.The Institute for Supply Management’s factory index fell to 49, the lowest reading since June 2009, from the prior month’s 50.7, the Tempe, Arizona-based group’s report showed today. Fifty is the dividing line between growth and contraction. The median forecast of 81 economists surveyed by Bloomberg was 51.~snip~

Of course for anyone who isn't paying attention this doesn't come as much of a surprise nor unexpected. There's no way to put a positive spin on the hostile business policies and the consequences of Obamacare on what they're doing for the economy.
Every indication over the Obamessiah's term is that our economy is sinking and the middle class is taking the brunt of punishment that the democrats have doled out to the public.

Anyone who voted for them has no room to gripe about their quality of life, you wanted it you got it.

Hunter Spanjer says his name with a certain special hand gesture, but at just three and a half years old, he may have to change it. "He's deaf, and his name sign, they say, is a violation of their weapons policy," explained Hunter's father, Brian Spanjer. Grand Island's "Weapons in Schools" Board Policy 8470 forbids "any instrument...that looks like a weapon," But a three year-old's hands? "Anybody that I have talked to thinks this is absolutely ridiculous. This is not threatening in any way," said Hunter's grandmother Janet Logue. "It's a symbol. It's an actual sign, a registered sign, through S.E.E.," Brian Spanjer said. S.E.E. stands for Signing Exact English, Hunter's sign language. Hunter's name gesture is modified with crossed-fingers to show it is uniquely his own. "We are working with the parents to come to the best solution we can for the child," said Jack Sheard, Grand Island Public Schools spokesperson. That's just about all GIPS officials will say for now. Meantime, Hunter's parents say that by Monday, lawyers from the National Association of the Deaf are likely to weigh in for Hunter's right to sign his own name.~snip~

Yup that's right, the idiot anti-gun zealotry has extended all the way to how a little deaf child signs his name. This is even dumber than the pop-tart gun.
The whole issue has has nothing to do with school safety as much as it has to do with control.
The liberals in government intend to control every facet of everyones lives starting with your children. They are trying to control how they play, how they act what they believe and even how they perceive their sexuality in order to groom them into becoming good little socialist drones.

The only way this kind of over the top indoctrination is going to stop is for communities to wrest control of their schools and children from the radically union owner federal government and place it back into the hands of local school boards where locally elected members can regain control of the schools.
